STORYLINE
Syphon Filter: The Omega Strain is the next installment of the Syphon
Filter storyline.
Outbreaks of a fatal, mysterious virus erupt in such different locations
as Toronto, Belarus,
Uganda, and Brazil. How did it spread? Where did the virus come from?
Chechnyan terrorists

it? What do they
want? The enigmatic Mara Aramov escapes from a high security prison
and is seen in locations
all over the world. How did she escape? Who is she working for?

Gabe Logan suspects that each of these questions can be answered with
another: Who is behind
the Syphon Filter conspiracy? Put in charge of a powerful new black-box
Agency, Gabe uses all
of his resources in a desperate battle against the clock. He and his
team track terrorists all over
the world including Quebec, Yemen, Belarus, Myanmar and Tokyo, as they

who mutated the original virus, and why. But ultimately, Gabe must battle
with the dark side of
high-stakes espionage: how far will he push his team to solve the mystery

The Omega Strain. How far will you go, to help him?
